    I observed this on another forum and decided I will attend to see, personally, what this will fetch.

    Should be very interesting, indeed.

    I would think he was more than happy...no wife, some nice cars, trucks and bikes...what else is there? It would be interesting to know his story.

    It certainly did! Absolutely crazy, the crowd was about 14 bodies deep, 360 degrees and couldn't even see the GT500, but was able to walk around all of the other vehicles.

    Quite a few other cars parked by owners to attend who left "For Sale" signs on them.

    So, if people lost on the bidding, they had the opportunity to come home with something...
